Survived many a potluck (okay just 2 - didn't attend Kim's or the 3rd work version).
Highlights:
- Herring-free herring salad @ MRD potluck
- pulled vension asian stirfry @ Fingarson potluck
- date balls leftover from some other potluck
Xmas brought us the BEST COOKIES EVER.. cinnamon stars. We have pictures on picasa.
- nice gingerbread recipe (picked the one w. more molasses, no disappointment there)
- actually having herring @ the Robelia's (I like it!)
- sweet potato from my mom
- endless supply of bean salad we have sitting in the fridge
- chipotle tabasco in our fridge!!
- pumpkin roll in wisconsin
- Bobbi's pomegranite martini
- the huge raisins in Ruth's spice bread
- silknog
- real meat at the Loranger's.
- the largest Qcumbers gift certificate in the world.
- Chrissy made a good bean dip.
Outings:
Matt Kim's wedding - Coconut curry vegetables. eh. Jon's chicken thing - 3 of 4 stars.
Tea House Buffet - As good as a chinese buffet could be, I suppose. Good fish and good from-a-can vanilla pudding. Jon likes the soup.
Taco John's - yes, seriously. We like it. The one in TRF was recently revised to include a salsa bar (yay). I looked @ the menu before leaving the house, so I knew to have a chix softshell taco & mexican rice. "what's in mexican rice". 'uh, mexican rice'.. (okay boo). My parents also ventured to a new section - ordering refried beans there. You can eat way too many refried beans, mexican rice, and all the salsa you want for a whopping $1.99. Make your OWN extra value menu! (that's almost healthy, but not really).
CAKE for Jennifer turning 30.
La Mixteca. We had a gordita. I don't like shredded pork there. Plus - Guarachas are better.
David made cinnamon rolls that were warm. =)
We are supposedly going to pazzaluna tonight..
We might go to holy land tomorrow. We'll see.
